🛠️ How to Use
🐎 1. Setting Up a Mount
To make an event mountable:
🔖 Note Field:
<Vehicle>
💬 Comment Field (optional):
<speed: X> → Set mount speed (default: 4)
<xOffset: X> → Horizontal offset (default: 0)
<yOffset: X> → Vertical offset (default: 0)
<fly: 1> → Enable flying
<playerMotion: 1> → Enable motion animation
<motion: X> → Set motion sway height (default: 4)
🧪 Example:
yaml
CopyEdit
Note: <Vehicle> Comment: <speed: 5> <xOffset: 10> <yOffset: -5> <fly: 1> <playerMotion: 1> <motion: 6>
🧱 2. Z-Index Control
Control how the player layers in each direction (Right, Up, Left, Down):
<playerLayerR: 1>
<playerLayerU: 0>
<playerLayerL: 1>
<playerLayerD: 0>
🧠 Values:
1 → Player is behind the mount
0 → Player is above the mount (default)
🧲 3. Mount Interaction
✅ To Mount: Interact with the mount event (Action Button).
❌ To Dismount: Press the OK Button (default: Z / Enter).
🔍 Advanced Features
🎢 Motion Animation
<playerMotion: 1> → Enables animation
